Chalet Heinz Julen Loft

The Chalet Heinz Julen Loft in Zermatt is one of the most spectacular properties in the Alps. This stunning chalet has been developed in the style of a large Manhattan loft and combines acres of glass, steel, textured concrete and wood in a unique architectural style immediately recognisable as being the handy work of local star designer, Heinz Julen. In fact this used to be his private residence in Zermatt so we honoured to market this property on his behalf.

The sense of space, light and closeness to nature that the Heinz Julen Loft provides is unparalleled - only huge panels of sheet glass separate the outside world from the internal living space - all is fluid and free.

The main loft living area has a suspended and illuminated main table which can be raised and lowered to create a low coffee table, or a mid-height dining table, or raised to the ceiling to create a large party space. In one corner you can play on a baby grand Steinway piano, while in another you can sink into a large sofa and gaze simultaneously at the stunning view over the village of Zermatt.

From this level a metal staircase leads up to the mezzanine which has another sofa chill-out area with TV; a free standing Jacuzzi bath, a cosy dining alcove, a galley kitchen (with cupboard handles made out of bent soup spoons), a cantilevered bar area and a guest WC. As you walk on this floor you will notice that the floating feeling is created as a result of it being made entirely of opaque glass with subtle inset lighting.

Overlooking the main loft area, there are two double en-suite bedrooms, one above the other. Each bedroom has its own small bathroom with shower and WC, and a balcony. The third master bedroom is very private with its own landing. It is an exact replica of the famous Into the Hotel suites created by Heinz Julen, featuring a free-standing bath with wood-slatted massage cover, an island bed on a rotating floor, his and her bedroom sinks, a separate shower room and WC, a walk-in wardrobe, a sofa, and a TV set into the glass window.

Access to this 240 square metre chalet is a two minute walk from the top of the Omnia Hotel lifts, for which you will have a special key. The bottom of the lift delivers you into the heart of Zermatt, close to the church.
